SLAM! Wrestling: Shocking Stories from the Squared Circle
Edited by Greg Oliver and Jon Waldman
Founded by Greg Oliver and John Powell, SLAM! Wrestling changed the way North America’s true favorite pastime was presented on the web. With the backing of Sun Media and Canoe, SLAM! Wrestling brought pure journalism to the muddy waters of the pro wrestling media coverage. Never in the Internet Age had the squared circle been viewed with a keen eye by reporters and analysts who broke down the philosophy of wrestling and feted its legends, while also not being afraid to show the very human side of the locker rooms that are hidden from the plain eye inside the world’s biggest arenas.

Wrestling has covered it all and now brings the history of the mat wars straight to your bookshelf.
